It took me over 5 months...

    To have my first $7000 month on clickbank!
    Actually there was PPC involved so the pure profit is about $6000 - $6200! (+ $800 from other aff programs)
    It's hard to believe sometimes - when I think that 5.5 months ago I had no idea about Internet/Affiliate Marketing.
    Many sales came from Bum Marketing!

    Here are some tricks:

    1) Research, Research and research some more.

    2) Track your sales, even CB offers a tracking ID. This way you would know what works what doesn't.

    3) If something works - don't brake it (my own experience)

    Don't give up.

    Congrats! Too bad that I live in Ukraine and not in Canada, in that case, Sasha (or Alesha), I probably will make something from CB:)

    I am Sasha too, I plan to use some virtual office services along with phone, paypal, etc. Cause it's very hard to make any good business with western companies without it.

    Is it 100% profit? Also did you make all that money as an affiliate or a publisher?

    Nice stats, quick question

    - What influence did falfelro's product have on this, was it

    your main earner and stuff like that.

    - How many products are you actively pushing

    - Did you profit of ppc through review pages or direct linking

    I still can't decide which is better

    - Are you thinking long term like having your own product or building a

    list.

    finally

    - If this is an April fools joke stop it NOW :D, these kind of stats are bad

    for my health :D

    Hey! I still sell Actually falfelfro's product but I am pushing 3-4 products in total.

    I only use review style landing pages for PPC, however more sales came from BUM and SEO than PPC.

    I am working on 3 of my own products right now and building a few lists. I think a well built list is the best thing you can do.

    It's not an April's fool joke ;)

    What exactly do you mean by the "kind of traffic"?

    BUM converts at about 1:40 -1:70 (hops)
    PPC converts at about 1:15 -1:30 (hops)

    I hope this is what you were asking

    I am guessing when you say bum you mean sites like squidoo and weebly

    and when you say seo, you mean your site right?

    "BUM converts at about 1:40 -1:70 (hops)"

    Wow, that's some nice conversions from organic traffic ;) Congratz btw, well done.

    I am currently working on Bum Marketing as well. I tried PPC before, but now I am trying something free :)

    Bum is awesome - and as long as you make it clear that the products costs $$$, your conversion ratio will go up.

    The same goes for PPC - I make sure I add the price in the ad, this way people that are looking fir free stuff are less likely to click ;)

    thats kinda what I meant, i was thinking more like unique visitors, hits per day. i have a clickbank mostly site that gets only about 30 pageviews a day but has been consistently doing that for about 3 months and have sold one clickbank ebook. So that would be about 1:2700 - and I sent about 600 hops.
